I wish there was an option for solo play for this as I really like dune but don't like the mmo part

With having played countless MMOs and Survival games (including Conan Exiles), I totally understood your server system as you described it. HOWEVER, I know for a fact this would throw newer/casual players into a loop. Only because of the format here. Probably would've been best to just set out a 5-minute explanation after the initial question. All the questions in between to move the description forward complicated it, when all of it could've done with so much more brevity and clarity. Example: "Players will be able to browse servers similar to the other games in the genre, such as Conan. However, we've implemented new functions that allow players to interactively travel to other maps via our Overworld Map. To do this, players will first need to work towards building an ornithopter on the starter world, which houses the Hagga Basin. Multiple destinations serve as social hubs for players to (insert every feature, assuming trade and maybe quest as well). Then there is the Deep Desert, where hundreds of players will engage in either allegiances or grand battles for the map's rare resources. Players can join guilds that are not server-dependent, they can also transfer their characters from one instance to another if they want to play with friends." And to be honest, I see the graphic for the multiple "worlds" and I actually still don't fully understand what is meant with that system. So that one is hard for me to include lmao. I'm guessing we will be able to travel with spice to places like Corrin, Geidi Prime, etc... Maybe through expansions?
So if I understood correctly, basically the beginning, the survival part will be like Age of Conan, and once you develop your character and cover the main needs, jumps into the MMO part in the Deep Desert where you go with your guild. And the cities are like BDO, with shards according the server cap.
A game that heavily relies on its player base: these meeting hubs could be as sparse and uninteresting as when Star Wars Galaxies came out.
Another day closer
Is server hopping in Basin seamless transition or you have to click in a server browser ? Also can you raid other peoples bases in different servers there?

By there I mean basin
Ain’t ever really played an mmo but is this like those games where you’ll be doing your campaign and see random people running around also doing said mission?
I love PvP but it's only fun for the people that are good at it. Most people don't go through a Rocky montage and significantly improve, they just give up and the game dies. I haven't heard anything that makes me think they've thought of a solution to this problem.
Quite Cool! How they describe the game, it feels like Guild Wars and Age of Conan had a child but on Arrakis. It's a very smart way to tackle plenty of difficulties and prepare for futur interesting expansions. if there is no subscrition fees, they are going to make a killing.
We physically fly to other locations. Oh my god FINALLY! It’s like you took everything I’ve wanted from other games and put it into this one. 👏👏👏

Not exactly. The overworld map flying is most likely the black and purple map you saw in the video.

Conan Exiles was buggy as hell on release so i'd be careful with this. Looks more like a pvp survival crafter with a social hub, but suppose if they can pull the player numbers off it might look cool.

Conan exiles was rushed out because the company was on the brink of bankruptcy, they only took 1-2 years to develop conan exiles and it still was a "success", imagine what they can do now with 5 year development, better engine, bigger team and more funding.. I am very hopeful at least.

@@hutch9016 I'm glad your excited. If you mean success 3 years after it was released. No one played it except the people that bought it on release because we warned everyone not to buy. Then eventually got a margin of what your talking about through gamepass. If you think it was a success yikes. Tencent pumped so much money into Funcom so they wouldn't close it was such a failure. You expect this to run better with 5 years of development but guarentee its gonna run the same as release ark.
Its like Albion online, every maps is a server
one of my major gripes with Funcom games is that most of the times, they have interesting concepts that get executed poorly. for example, from a functional level--- their engine architecture for Conan Exiles makes for stupidly long load times. for The Secret World, various systems were clunkily put together for a jagged experience, so even if the environment was good how things were knit together as an experience wasn't great. Funcom's single player games were WAY better in vision, cohesion, and performance. multiplayer games? questionable.
Wipe once a week seems too frequent but I'm sure they will balance it. I thought different sections would be hit by the storm e.g different servers or areas on the map, but instead it's sounds like it's pretty much the whole map. Either way it will be interesting.
better question is,can i host my own servers like it's done with myth of empires ? otherwise it's a skip for me,i ain't playing games to live in them 24/7 or lose my shit. i didnt even played ANY conan server but my own for that reason and that not gonna change.ever.
can't wait for gameplay in August!
"Every week your deep desert (read: late game) progress will be reset" I'll never understand why people think this is a good thing conceptually.
As long as i dont get banned for 7 days like I did in conan for nothing then im sure it will be fine
Weird that they keep saying servers when talking about instances. I would think of servers as NA/EU/OCE with likely a few on each. I wonder how THAT will work one. One mega server would be epic.

It's a matter of the chosen words. An instance technically is a server. There won't be any mega server. There will be Worlds, that will act like the servers of WoW, and inside of each world, the regions of the map will be divided in instances/servers connecec with seamless transitions between them.
Not a fan of this thought process/base idea for a map/world interaction
DOA BABY!!!!! 🤣🤣
Sounds awesome, cant wait. Hope its optimized for ps5 when it comes out.
Sounds good! Just hope, no g-portal servers ^_^

You forgot to ask them how much of the content of the game will be locked behind a pay wall. If you don't want to live in a straw hut, pay up. I want to play but I also do not underestimate funcoms ability to microctransaction the shit out of it.

No. The world will have the players from the deep desert + social hubs + hagga basin. Probably that will make 1000 or even 2000 players in a same world playing online. You can't expect go everyone to the deep desert just like in WoW everyone is outside the cities, aka social hubs.
So this is going to be a pvp toxic mess with frequent wipes? Better stay away then...

So in 2024, after decades of advancements in software and hardware, we're looking at a loading lobby to travel the world. Call it overland map all you want, but that's a lobby. We should be able to hop into an ornithopter and fly in the world from place to place. What a disappointment.

Dude, you have tons of PvE games to play, stop coming to each PvP game to change the whole thing. Also, Dune is basically a Game of Thrones universe, so there is a war between factions. A Coop game won't work here.
This game looks like a huge epic fail...
Please don't listen feedback from users like @TheGausteive. Don't make this game a PvE game for carebears. If you do that, your product will go to the PvE market and you it will die absorbed by other games like World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy, just like happened to New World. Make this a PvP game.
